What do you feel has less risks? I’m considering Forteo but have low BP and hear it can cause hypotension on rising, among other things.

I have very low BP (90/50)and was on Forteo for 2 years with no issues. Everyone is different of course but just wanted to share my positive experience as I know how hard these decisions are.

I was on Forteo, daily injections for two years. It was very expensive. In my case it did not stop the progression of my bone density loss. I did have rheumatoid arthritis years ago and what did me in was a long term treatment of prednisone which damages your bones. Forteo may work for others, but it did not for me.
By the way, I stopped eating red meat and that is how I ended my rheumatoid arthritis, but the damage was done.
